Hi Guys

I´m sorry if this is the wrong forum. And if im talking nonsense. smile

Anyways, here it goes.
Im running Vista on one harddrive, and Mac OSx on another. Would VistaBootPro be able to make a dualboot GUI with my two harddrives ??

Thanks in advance
Anders

VistaBootPro does not see the Linux based partitions.

Doesn't Boot Camp auto create a dual boot menu?

It should, and the whole Mac OS X boot manager is a pain to deal with. I tried to setup a manual system boot one time when trying to install various flavors of Linux on an old Mac as well as FreeBSD and couldn't get any of them to work right when setting it up manually.
